Confident
I’m trying to understand what type of transference I have with my therapist. My mind keeps telling me she’s like or going to do things a past abuser has done. A lot of my memories are repressed and I only have the covert abusive tendencies (like being made to sleep in the same bed, and limited privacy when getting dressed as well as going to the bathroom in front of us) that they displayed through the account of a relative. The limited memories doesn’t prevent nightmares were I’m being hurt in a way that could’ve happened to me but in the nightmares it’s always my therapist. Recently I keep having intrusive images of abuse (again involving my therapist) again I don’t really know what to do or how to approach when I don’t know what it is. I just don’t want it to be confused as positive transference when I don’t want nor am I aroused by the actions in the nightmares and thoughts.
Side note we were finally going to talk about the nightmares after months of me putting it off only for a family emergency to come up at the last moment causing me to cancel my session.
